Netrin-1 (NTN1) is a laminin-related secreted protein involved in axon guidance and cell migration. Previous research has established a significant connection between NTN1 and nervous system development. In recent years, mounting evidence indicates that NTN1 also plays a crucial role in tumorigenesis and tumor progression.

NUMB alternative splicing and isoform specific functions in development and disease.

J Biol Chem

January 2025

The Arthur and Sonia Labatt Brain Tumour Research Centre, The Hospital for Sick Children, 555 University Avenue, Toronto, ON, Canada, M5G 1X8; Department of Medical Biophysics, University of Toronto, 610 University Avenue, Toronto, ON, Canada, M5G 2M9. Electronic address:

The NUMB gene encodes a conserved adaptor protein with roles in asymmetric cell division and cell fate determination. First described as an inhibitor of Notch signaling, multi-functional NUMB proteins regulate multiple cellular pathways through protein complexes with ubiquitin ligases, polarity proteins and the endocytic machinery. The vertebrate NUMB protein isoforms were identified over two decades ago, yet the majority of functional studies exploring NUMB function in endocytosis, cell migration and adhesion, development and disease have largely neglected the potential for distinct isoform activity in design and interpretation.

Dynamic behavior of cell-cell adhesion factors in collective cell migration.

Cells Dev

January 2025

Quantitative and Imaging Biology, International Research Collaboration Center (IRCC), National Institutes of Natural Sciences (NINS), Japan; Trans-Scale Biology Center, National Institute for Basic Biology (NIBB), National Institutes of Natural Sciences (NINS), Japan. Electronic address:

Collective cell migration is a fundamental process underlying various biological phenomena, including embryonic development and cancer cell invasion. The cohesive yet flexible movement of cell collectives largely depends on the coordinated regulation of cell-cell and cell-substrate adhesions. In this review, we summarize the regulation of key cell-cell junction components, such as cadherins and zonula occludens proteins during collective cell migration, with a particular focus on the recently discovered multifaceted roles of ZO-1 in both cell-cell and cell-substrate interactions.

Targeted Polymer-Peptide Conjugates for E-Selectin Blockade in Renal Injury.

Pharmaceutics

January 2025

Department of Clinical Biochemistry and Pharmacology, Faculty of Health Sciences, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Beer-Sheva 84105, Israel.

Background/objectives: Leukocytes play a significant role in both acute kidney injury (AKI) and chronic kidney disease (CKD), contributing to pathogenesis and tissue damage. The process of leukocyte infiltration into the inflamed tissues is mediated by the interactions between the leukocytes and cell adhesion molecules (CAMs, i.e.

Current Insight of Peptide-Based Hydrogels for Chronic Wound Healing Applications: A Concise Review.

Pharmaceuticals (Basel)

January 2025

Department of Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia, Cheras, Kuala Lumpur 56000, Malaysia.

Chronic wounds present a substantial healthcare obstacle, marked by an extended healing period that can persist for weeks, months, or even years. Typically, they do not progress through the usual phases of healing, which include hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling, within the expected timeframe. Therefore, to address the socioeconomic burden in taking care of chronic wounds, hydrogel-based therapeutic materials have been proposed.
